Preface

Since Fuxi drew hexagrams and King Wen performed Yi, “Book of Changes” has been regarded as the classic of classics, the philosophy of philosophy, and the wisdom of wisdom. Mr. Xiao Tianshi, a master of Taoism, once said: “Book of Changes” “From nothing to existence, from simplicity to complexity, from infinite to Taiji, to Yin and Yang, to four images, to face eight trigrams, to sixty-four hexagrams, to three hundred and eighty-four lines, So that infinite images, infinite numbers, infinite changes, and infinite principles can all be deduced and used. From one aspect to ten thousand differences, from ten thousand differences to return to one; the original aspect is infinite” ( Xiao Tianshi: “The Holy Explanation of the Tao Te Ching”). Not only that, “Yi” is also the root of the civilization of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, and it is the ancestor of all schools of thought. The two schools of Confucianism and Taoism that have had the greatest influence on Chinese culture all have Yi as their core idea, and the only difference is Yi. Confucianism is dry, Taoism is Kun. The key to Yi is in Qiankun, with Qiankun as the gateway. “Xici Upload” said: “The evil of the universe and its changes. Qian is the Yang thing; Kun is the Yin thing. It is called the name, the miscellaneous rain does not go beyond, and it is judged by its kind, and its meaning of decline is evil?” Confucianism is dry, dry is the hexagram of Chunyang, and the law is “Heaven moves healthy ”, and the Lord” strives constantly for self-improvement” 8221;, advocate the first, take the initiative, master the uppermost, master the strong, master the strong, and master the aggressiveness, and advocate the accumulation of slabs, which is a study of entering the world; The main “virtuous carrying things”, the main queen, the main quiet, the main next. Master softness, master weakness, master conformity, advocate passive inaction, and retire after success, it is a study beyond the world. That is to say, Confucianism takes Qian Gua, the first hexagram of the Book of Changes, as its logical starting point, discusses the vigorous characteristics of Qian Gua, and uses it to deduce its own views on life, society, the country, and everything; Hexagrams are his logical starting point, and he discusses the virtues of Kun hexagrams, so as to deduce his views on life, society, country and everything. However, when the anode is dry, the yin is born, and when the extreme is extreme, it will not come. Things cannot be extreme, but the extreme will be reversed; Although Confucianism and Taoism have different theories, they have the same effect. “The reason why the two schools of thought are opposite and yet they can finally be compatible is that they are similar to “Chang”, and there is no way to get a little bit of it” (Xiao Tianshi: “The Holy Explanation of the Tao Te Ching”). In modern times, the school motto of Tsinghua University, one of the most authoritative universities in China’s science education, is “Self-improvement” and “Good Virtue” also come from the two hexagrams of Qian and Kun in “Book of Changes”, that is, “Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman strives constantly for self-improvement” (Qian Gua) , “Distance Kun, a gentleman carries things with virtue”; (Kun hexagram). It means: the movement of heaven (that is, nature) is strong and vigorous. Correspondingly, a gentleman should be resolute and strong, and strive to be strong: The momentum of the earth is thick and smooth, and a gentleman should increase his virtues and accommodate all things. “Self-improvement, virtues carry things” brilliantly summarizes the profound understanding and dialectical principles of Chinese culture on the relationship between man and nature, man and society, and man and man. How to deal with it. After thousands of years of trials and changes of ups and downs, the Chinese nation has always been able to cohere firmly together and maintain the vigor and vitality of a great nation, which is inseparable from this profound understanding. In fact, ” Constantly strive for self-improvement, be virtuous and carry things” has constituted an important representation of the national spirit and national character of the Chinese nation. (Xu Baogeng: “Explanation on the School Motto”). It can be seen that the “Book of Changes” has a huge and far-reaching influence on Chinese culture!
